Meet Bifang at the beginning
Gu Xiaoyue's ears were tickled by him, and she gave him a strange look.
Did he know her?
However, this senior's aura wasn't annoying; on the contrary, it made one want to get close to him.
This was also why, when he leaned close to Gu Xiaoyue, she didn't feel particularly repulsed.
The remote controls were distributed, and the ten teams, totaling 60 people plus two class instructors, boarded the school bus and drove directly to the mountain behind the school.
The school bus drove to the middle of the mountainside and stopped at a cliff face carved with a Qilin pattern.
"This is the entrance to the secret realm!"
One of the class instructors introduced it to the students with some excitement.
The ten teams entered the secret realm one after another.
Each team was teleported randomly, so it wasn't certain which area they would land in.
Those with good luck landed near fairy herbs, while those with bad luck landed right into beasts.
However, it was said that most of the beasts here were at Young life stage 8-10, which were generally manageable.
For Gu Xiaoyue's team, it was hard to say whether it was good or bad luck—they landed directly near the nest of a Ferocious Bird, and a han jiang grass was right beside it.
The effect of han jiang grass—it had a chance to directly upgrade a pet beast by one major level, and its market value could soar to 60 or 70 million.
It didn't sound very expensive, but if it failed, everything would be lost.
People afraid of failure wouldn't spend this money; it would be better to spend 130 million to buy a Golden Herb, which guaranteed a 100% upgrade.
The Ferocious Bird sensed the presence of strangers, and a bird cry expressed its dissatisfaction and a warning to Gu Xiaoyue and the others.
"han jiang grass! han jiang grass!" Han Qiao shouted, rushing toward the han jiang grass.
Was she tired of living?
Gu Xiaoyue naturally wanted the han jiang grass too, but the Ferocious Bird was eyeing them covetously; even if they wanted to take it, they had to use their brains!
Seeing that they hadn't left and that one person was actually running toward it, the Ferocious Bird flew up abruptly—also allowing Gu Xiaoyue to see its attributes and full appearance clearly.
It had crimson feathers, only one leg, blue skin, and emitted blue light all over its body. It was—Bi Fang!
【Name】: Bi Fang
【Grade】: Immortal Tier mid-grade
【Attribute】: Fire attribute
【Skills】: Fireball (Advanced), Fire Sea (Advanced), Fire Ring (Advanced)
【Level】: Mature Stage 3 Mid-phase
Cold sweat broke out on Gu Xiaoyue's palms. To think this secret realm actually had a Mature Stage 3 beast, and an Immortal Tier one at that.
If it were a Mature Stage 1 mid-phase, or even late-phase, she and Chu Li would have the strength to fight it.
But in the current situation, the best choice was to flee for their lives!
As long as their lives were saved, there would be plenty of opportunities to get the han jiang grass.
"Fang Xiaoyu, take Han Qiao and go! Wait for us 20 kilometers to the southeast! Chu Li, you take Ye Wanrou and Chen Yixuan!"
Gu Xiaoyue summoned Qingqing and leaped onto its back.
Chu Li understood, summoned the Fire Phoenix, and took Chen Yixuan and Ye Wanrou.
"I'm not leaving! I want to pick the han jiang grass!" Han Qiao was carried on Fang Xiaoyu's shoulder, yet she was still struggling.
"If you don't leave, you'll die here! Chu Li, you guys go first!"
Gu Xiaoyue didn't want to deal with this moronic woman; she was Fang Xiaoyu's girlfriend, so let him handle it!
The Qingluan's speed was even faster than the Fire Phoenix. Gu Xiaoyue deliberately had the Qingluan fly toward Bi Fang, provoked it, and then flew in the opposite direction of Chu Li and Fang Xiaoyu.
Chu Li understood Gu Xiaoyue's intention and directed the Fire Phoenix to fly in the northeast direction, changing direction again after flying ten kilometers, until they reached the location specified by Gu Xiaoyue.
Chu Li dropped off Chen Yixuan and Ye Wanrou, then went to find Gu Xiaoyue.
When he arrived near the Bi Fang's nest, there was no sign of them left.
Chu Li hesitated for a moment, then picked the han jiang grass and threw it into his Yu Beast Space.
Then he continued to search in the direction where Gu Xiaoyue had lured Bi Fang away.
Looking back at Gu Xiaoyue, although Qingqing's speed was fast, Bi Fang was not slow either.
While chasing, it kept casting Fireball, nearly injuring Qingqing several times.
Gu Xiaoyue was calculating how to find an opportunity to summon Xiao Hei, hide in Xiao Hei's hidden space, and then turn invisible.
However, Bi Fang was in hot pursuit, and she had no chance to summon Xiao Hei at all.
"Chirp—" Qingqing let out a wail; its left wing had been grazed by Bi Fang's fireball and was injured.
Qingqing's speed slowed down significantly. Seeing that Bi Fang was about to attack again, Gu Xiaoyue hurriedly withdrew Qingqing and summoned Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi used Wind Control, which allowed it to fly in the air, and its speed was not at all inferior to Qingqing's.
She hadn't summoned Xiao Qi before because she didn't want it exposed in front of others, but now that she was alone and Qingqing was injured, she had no other choice.
Bi Fang was stunned for a moment. The little bird that had provoked it had disappeared, and it had originally intended to give up the chase.
However, Xiao Qi directly unleashed a Lightning Strike, blasting Bi Fang.
Gu Xiaoyue thought to herself, "Ancestor, are you hoping I die?"
She hadn't told Xiao Qi to attack Bi Fang. Facing a Mature Stage 3 beast, not to mention having the confidence to kill it, even escaping unscathed wouldn't be easy.
She was still too weak!
"Ding—detected that the host's life is under threat, system protection mechanism activated—Option 1: Overdraft 2000 points to kill the beast in front—Option 2: Overdraft 1000 points to contract the beast in front—"
Although the corpse of a Mature Stage 3 Immortal Tier beast was quite valuable, contracting it would make her even more formidable.
She chose the second option without hesitation.
"Ding—Forced Contract skill activated—"
A milky white sphere of light appeared in Gu Xiaoyue's hand, the size of a pet egg.
One second ago, Gu Xiaoyue was still confused, not knowing how to use this thing.
The next second, she had already cut her wrist, and blood was gushing into the sphere of light.
After about 10 milliliters of blood flowed out, the milky white sphere of light had already turned somewhat bright red.
Gu Xiaoyue used all her strength to throw the ball toward Bi Fang's head.
At this moment, Bi Fang seemed to have been hit by a immobilization spell; it didn't move at all until the sphere of light sank between its eyes, at which point it started to struggle consciously.
However, the more Bi Fang struggled, the smaller it became. Its body, which was originally five times the size of Qingqing, slowly shrank to the size of a pet egg, eventually becoming a red pet egg.
This Bi Fang egg slowly flew into Gu Xiaoyue's hand.
This scene was also taken in by Chu Li, who had chased after them.
He was a bit mind-blown; it was clearly a Mature Stage 3 beast, yet it turned into a pet egg.
And there was Gu Xiaoyue's companion beast; it didn't look like a cow, a horse, or a deer, and it could actually fly!
However, he immediately calmed down; there were too many fortuitous encounters around Xiao Yue, and he was already past the point of being surprised.
Chu Li went over to check Gu Xiaoyue's body, wanting to see if she was injured.
"I'm fine, but Qingqing was injured."
Gu Xiaoyue took some gauze from her Yu Beast Space and wrapped her bleeding wrist.
She then entered her Yu Beast Space with her mind and had Xiao Lan treat Qingqing.
The pet egg in her arms cracked open with a clicking sound, and a tiny Bi Fang crawled out of the eggshell.
"Cheep—" Unlike the ferocious beast Bi Fang from just a moment ago, the current Young life stage 1 little Bi Fang was actually especially clingy to Gu Xiaoyue.
Gu Xiaoyue smiled, petted its little head, and put it into her Yu Beast Space.
Its attack power was high, and it had control skills; Gu Xiaoyue couldn't be more satisfied with Bi Fang!
However, looking at the -1000 points in the System Mall, she was back to square one in an instant!
Chu Li handed the han jiang grass to Gu Xiaoyue. "Should we tell them that the han jiang grass is in our hands?"
